Tim Layden: LiveStrong Bands are a "Cultural Phenomena"

+ Posted by Josh Hallett on 09.11.04 // 02:49 PM

Sports Illustrated's Tim Layden has an article online: Armstrong's yellow wrist bands have become cultural phenomenon.

The article discusses the popularity of the bands at the Olympics. He also provides some insight to the financials. The LAF pays $0.23 per band for manufacturing and shipping, so $0.77 per unit is donated.

He also mentions the poplarity of the bands on Ebay. Remember folks, don't buy your LiveStrong Bands from Ebay. Buy them from the LAF, that way your $1 goes to the source.
